We will continue with Ch 1. You will watch the video below, follow the format shown in the video to do your lab work and submit it by the due date.

 

Here are the topics for today:

1.3  Quantitative Variables: Histograms

1.4  Interpreting Histograms

1.5  Quantitative Variables: Stemplots

1.6  Time plots

(While Ch 1 does not talk about dotplots, the book does use dotplots in later chapters.  Dotplots are easy to create, providing a quick visualization of data. We will use dotplots in Ch 2).

Here are the detailed Instructions

  • Two questions in this lab work. Follow the format in the video below.
    • #1.6 (histogram)
    • Question not in book (stemplot)

 

  • The video listed below explains the concepts and also shows you how to do the lab work:

Ch 1 — graphical tools for quantitative variables

 

  • Make sure you follow the format shown in the video as that is how your grader grades your lab work.

 

  • No need to type your lab work:
    • Write out your lab work on a piece of paper by hand.
    • Take photos of all the pages.
    • Save photos as one single PDF file.
    • Upload your one single PDF file to Canvas by the due date.
      • your one-single PDF should have two lab work problems.
    • After uploading your one single PDF into Canvas, if you realize that you have made mistakes and want to revise your homework,  you can upload another PDF into Canvas before the due date.  Canvas will keep track of all your submissions and display your latest submission to the grader. In other words, you can submit as many times as you want as long as you do so before the due date!
    • Your homework will NOT be accepted if it is NOT a single PDF file.

 

  • Lab work is typically pretty straight forward as this is the first round of learning. The multiple choice homework questions for each chapter, which we call them Multiple Choice Homework, will be more challenging than the lab work.

 

  • If you have questions regarding lab work, come to the Zoom meetings and ask!
